Chaotopia! is neither Utopia nor its opposite. It is what Austin Osman Spare
called 'the chaos of the normal', seen through an illuminated eye, the eye of
the sorcerer.
‘Once one is fairly competent at practical sorcery, there is little of
importance that remains to be said or read about the subject; the magician at
this point tends to emphasize inner development in his work. It seems to me that
Chaos Magic itself has reached this point; the basic ideas needed for anyone to
construct his or her own system of sorcery and to hone their skills are already
covered by the available books. What has been lacking so far, is a Chaos magical
approach to the investigation of the ecstatic states that underlie magical
gnosis. This book, rather than trying to provide yet another slightly different
flavour of Chaos technique, takes as its starting point the relationship between
ecstasy and magic; between Chaos Magic and Chaos Mysticism, if you like.’
